The soothsayer...

I was walking one day, ran into a soothsayer.
Thought to myself this is the answer to my prayer.
Too much I wanted to know about tomorrow.
I wonder if it would bring me more sorrow.


I watched her from across the street.
The order to approach her didn't reach my feet.
She noticed my stares and waved me to come.
I was wondering where she came from.


I stood facing her, she eyed me and said,
What can I do for you today, kid?
I tried to get the words out but I couldn't.
I wanted to be here but I knew I shouldn't.


I wanted to ask you a question, I said.
Questions I'm still debating in my head.
Have I already gotten this shallow?
The idea of a soothsayer was hard to swallow.


Go ahead and ask I don't have all day?
Tell me what's been worrying you today?
Is it a problem with your parents or a friend?
Go ahead and tell me I can be your friend.


I swallowed my fears and then talked.
I wanted to know about the roads I've walked.
I want to know about the days that will follow,
I would like to know if they'd bring me more sorrow.


The roads you've walked were your choice, kid.
Knowing more about them won't erase what you did.
Your choices are your own responsibility.
Changing your life is in your capability.


You asked about the days that will follow,
And whether life will bring you more sorrow.
I'm afraid with this I cannot help you.
As about the future, I cannot tell you.


A piece of advice is all I can offer.
You should not lose hope ever.
Do not live in fear from tomorrow.
Do not have your life controlled by sorrow.


Think about now and try to enjoy.
There is a lot in your life to bring in joy.
Don't waste your time on yesterday.
Plan for tomorrow and enjoy today.


You're too young to live in sorrow.
It's never good to give up on tomorrow.
Whatever it brings you, you should face.
Face it with courage, faith and grace.


Thank you so much for your advice, I said.
A million thought going through my head.
She was right in every word she said.
Over the past, I should no longer dread.


I got up and started to walk away.
Thinking this stranger just made my day.
She sure gave me a lot to think about,
From this moment on, I will not live in doubt.

My guardian angel and me

Guardian angel, I conjure you.
For without your help I have no clue.
Guardian angel, could you please help me?
Cause I need your help to break free.

You seek your freedom my friend.
However, you have loose ends to end.
As with fear, freedom cannot exist.
Confidence is the key, have it and rest.

Guardian angel, I feel so weak.
All true words I fear to speak.
Guardian angel, I'm trapped inside.
Going through mazes, in my own mind.

You're creating your own hell.
As if troubles are all you can smell.
I'm your guardian angel it's true.
However, in your own head I can't help you.

Guardian angel, I trust your judgment.
As what you say is no compliment.
Guardian angel, tell me what's true.
Please lead the way, as I have no clue.

My friend if peace is what you seek,
Then for your rights you have to speak.
When you're weak, peace you'll never reach.
As when you have sins, you cannot preach.

Guardian angel, I cannot let go.
Sometimes I think I'm my own foe.
Guardian angel, I cannot escape.
My mind feels like a rotten grape.

My friend a wall is what's in your way.
A wall you created day by day.
This wall you'll have to tear down.
Unless, you grew to love your own frown.

Guardian angel, give me a clue.
I want to break free. I swear it is true.
However, support is something I need.
And I cannot seem to find it anywhere indeed.

Look for support in the right place.
In the wrong ones, frustration you'll face.
Make up your mind and you'll succeed.
My friend presistance is what you need.

Guardian angel, how great you can be.
With your words, I shall break free.
I asked for a clue, you gave me plenty.
And I'll step up for the sake of my sanity.

My friend I am as great as you are.
For where I come from is not far.
I only exist to be by your side.
As where I come from is your own mind.

Done waiting...

I shall not wait for magic.
I'll no longer witness tragic.
cause it's not worth it.
I'm breaking all the rules.

I shall not shed another tear.
I'll no longer give in to fear.
Cause it's not worth it.
I'm breaking all the rules.

I shall not settle for little.
I'll no longer stay in the middle.
Cause it's not worth it.
I'm breaking all the rules.

I shall wonder no more.
I'll no longer ask what for.
Cause I'm worth it.
I'll live my own life now.

My tribute to music...

***Music is a big inspiration to me. I owe a lot of my poems to music especially the bands "Muse","Blue October" & "Aerosmith". Music is a friend to me :D




You brighten my days.
You add alot to my life.
Giving me a lot of meaning
Introducing me to a new feeling.
You rock my soul from inside.
You open up my eyes and mind.
Picking me up when I'm down.
Helping me rise when I fall.
You bring new things to my life.
You make me feel alive.
Helping me change and evolve.
Every problem you manage to solve.
Melodies chasing the pain away.
Changing my mood every day.
You never leave me alone.
My friend you rock my life.
My friend you make my soul alive.

Thoughts...

***This is again one of my first ones. I like it because it represents the confusion that I felt at that moment...

"Questioning... Doubting...
Sinking... Drowning...
Thinking... Wondering..

What am I missing here?
The picture is not complete.

Searching... Digging...
Seeking... Hoping...

What's the answer?
My life is not complete.

Asking... Listening...

What am I missing here?
Is the picture ever going to be complete???"
